Meet Syria’s All New”Tahir al-Sham” Terrorists

Just like the old Al Qaeda, al Nusra, ISIS, ISIL & the rest of them.

“Tahir al-Sham” is just another word for Al Qaeda, al Nusra or ISIS. They all follow the same script.

Who is Abu Mohammed al-Golani, leader of HTS in Syria?

With Hayat Tahrir al-Sham’s dramatic capture of Aleppo, al-Golani has upended many expectations about the war in Syria.

In just three days, opposition fighters captured Syria’s second-largest city, Aleppo, after the stunning collapse of government forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad.

Leading the offensive was Abu Mohammed al-Golani, who stands at the head of Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), a group that has become the most powerful armed opposition force in Syria.
